Abstract: A method is provided for controlling a four-stroke multi-cylinder spark ignition combustion engine using cylinder deactivation of a subgroup of cylinders while another subgroup is working, during operation with an engine torque below a predetermined level. In that case, the method uses different techniques for deactivating some of the cylinders where one technique involves cylinder balancing for achieving stable operation and the other technique involves keeping the inlet and/or exhaust valves substantially closed during all four strokes. A system is also provided for implementing the above method, comprising a multi-cylinder spark ignition combustion engine with an electronic control unit (ECU), a fuel injector (114) and at least two throttles (106, 107), at least two chambers of an inlet manifold (108, 109) and means for disabling the inlet and exhaust valves for at least some of the cylinders.

Abstract: La présente invention porte sur une composition polymère résistant à la combustion et exempte d'halogène qui comprend: A) un polymère thermoplastique ou un mélange polymère ; B) une résine époxy multifonctionnelle modifiée contenant entre 0 et 20 % en poids de groupes époxy résiduels, sur la base du poids total de la résine époxy et C) un composé contenant du phosphore. L'utilisation d'un composé époxy multifonctionnel modifié possédant entre 0 et 20 % en poids de groupes époxy résiduels renforce l'ininflammabilité du polymère thermoplastique et peut accroître la compatibilité de la résine époxy avec le polymère thermoplastique à l'aide des fonctionnalités modifiées sans former de taches noires sur le produit final. Il s'avère également que des résines époxy multifonctionnelles modifiées peuvent aussi contribuer à améliorer les propriétés mécaniques, l'indice de fluidité et la transformabilité.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring an apparent depth (1) of a section of an eye (30) are disclosed. Light is focused to a measurement location (15) proximate or within the eye. The measurement location is scanned through the section and upon passing through first and second refractive index interfaces defining the section, a respective reflected light signal is detected, from which apparent positions of the first and second interfaces may be derived. Preferably, a confocal scanning arrangement is employed. Preferably, the section is the aqueous humor (34) of the eye (30). From changes in its refractive index (n) corresponding changes in glucose concentration in the aqueous humor and, in turn, in the bloodstream of a patient may be derived, offering a non-invasive monitoring means for diabetic patients. The apparatus may be a hand-held device, employing microelectromechanical systems. The radius of curvature (R) of a curved section, such as a cornea (32) or ocular lens (36), may also be measured to determine refractive errors of the eye.

Abstract: Revocation of digital certificates in a public-key infrastructure is disclosed, particularly in the case when a certificate might need to be revoked prior to its expirations. For example, if an employee was terminated or switched roles, his current certificate should no longer be valid. Accordingly, novel methods, components and systems are presented for addressing this problem. A solution set forth herein is based on the construction of grounded dense hash trees. In addition, the grounded dense hash tree approach also provides a time-communication tradeoff compared to the basic chain-based version of NOVOMODO, and this tradeoff yields a direct improvement in computation time in practical situations.

Abstract: A fitting for a sanitary hose assembly includes a rigid, tubular stem, a cylindrical ferrule, and an annular seal, which coact with the end of the hose to achieve a uniformly leakproof seal for a material flow path through the hose and into the fitting. One end of the ferrule extends over the outer end of the hose, such that the ferrule engages the hose and extends slightly beyond the hose. An inner end of the stem extends through an outer end of the ferrule and into the hose, such that the outer surface of the stem frictionally engages the internal surface of the hose. The stem has an outer end adapted to connect to a similar structure, internal threads which cooperatively engage similar threads on the ferrule, and an outwardly directed land adjacent the threads. The threaded coupling of the stem and the ferrule fixes their relative axial relationship, and also axially compresses the annular seal between. The ferrule is radially crimped to compress the end of the hose between the stem and the ferrule. This combination of components provides a circumferentially uniform and leakproof seal between the hose and the fitting, at relatively low cost.

A spring ( 37 ) urges the nose ( 32 ) of the plunger ( 30 ) out through an aperture ( 40 ) in the spray head ( 21 ). A flat washer seal ( 42 ) is positioned with a majority of its surface on a shelf ( 41 ) formed in the spray head ( 21 ). Ribs ( 43 ) on the shelf ( 41 ) engage the seal ( 42 ) on one side, and a rim ( 44 ) on the base ( 31 ) engages the other side of the seal ( 42 ). The quick disconnect assembly ( 60 ) includes a valve ( 66 ) which is maintained closed by a spring ( 67 ) so that when the hose ( 50 ) is disconnected from the source of water, or the water supply pressure is lost, backflow is prevented. When a container is inverted and its bottom pushed down on the top of the nose ( 32 ) of the plunger ( 30 ), the base ( 31 ) of the plunger ( 30 ) is moved away from the seal ( 42 ) to allow water to be emitted from spray head ( 21 ) through axial apertures ( 70 ) and radial apertures ( 71 ).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering fractional hydrocarbons from recycled plastic fractions, which are sorted according to type and compacted under the exclusion of air using a feed system (1, 2, 3, 4), the compacted mass being supplied to a fusion container (7), where it is heated. The mass is separated into a first liquid phase, a first gas phase and a residual fraction, the liquid phase and the first gas phase are then transported to an evaporation container (20), in which a second liquid phase and a second gas phase are produced by the application of heat. The second liquid phase is transferred to a secondary heater (23) and heated further to produce a third gas phase. The second gas phase and the third gas phase are then supplied to a cracking tower (27), in which further cracking of the long-chained hydrocarbons occurs and short-chained hydrocarbons are produced. The oil gas is supplied to a primary condenser (30), in which it is condensed to liquid oil, the latter constituting the target product.
